Amazing 2 night stay!

We switched to this hotel last minute for a weekend away in Belfast and we’re so glad we did. The staff were so helpful & also accommodated an early check in as we arrived early. The room was very spacious & the bed was comfortable. There was free beer on arrival and also complimentary water and coffee/tea facilities in the room. We stayed in the room above the bar and the noise wasn’t an issue at all. The window lounge seat was great for chilling out/people watching. Bar/restaurant downstairs was a lovely vibe with heaters and outdoor seating. The Chinese next door was also lovely! I’d definitely recommend staying here and would return again. Great spot & fab value for money :)

Great value, but too close to smokers area.

Absolute bargain price. Room was described as above the bar and may be noisy. We stayed a Sunday and Monday night, noise eas acceptable and did not disturb us. What did disturb us was the awful smell of smoke from the folks outside. This didnt happen on the Sunday night as the bar wasnt as busy and possibly no smokers. But the Monday evening, it was sickening. The room has no air conditioning and we had left the window open all day on Monday as we had been warm on the Sunday night. So, when we returned on Monday evening at 10pm......eeeeuuugghh.

Very spacious room, very clean, good location. My issues had to do with the heater, either the heater wasn’t working effectively or the room was too big for one heater. Secondly there wasn’t enough light in the room, they only had just 2 bed side lamps, that definitely cant be enough to illuminate such a big room. Thirdly the property needs an elevator. Aside those issues, I enjoyed my stay.
